As ever it could all go horribly West Ham - but this feels like a big (unexpected) step up. He's got some hard work ahead of him to improve the balance of our squad and you'd like to think he's signed on the basis of having a reasonable budget to use on achieving that.

Genuinely made up at this. As much as I never thought it would happen I have to say well done Sully. Could be the start of something exciting.

All we need now is a healthy transfer budget, new training facilities, less PR nightmares, respect between owners and fans, redesign of the matchday experience and a complete refurb of the stadium and we could really go places.
